High Chair

How could I pass up this one, once again an excellent example of lighting.

There are two things about this that take it from being a good shot to a great one. The first is the apparent narrow beam of lights you have used to isolate the subject (I'm not sure if that's what's actually happening here but it looks that way) and the second, for me anyway, is the fact that's it's an old looking uninteresting chair that you have used, which for some reason just seems to give the shot that much more appeal.

Food photography is something I'm not particularly good at (probably as a result of me not being particularly good at artificial lighting) so whenever I see it well done I marvel, and this definitely fits the bill!

Obviously the first thing that strikes me is the nice lighting you have here, it's soft enough to make the shot appealing but there are still some little shadows like the one under the sauce bowl and around the edge of the plate which really add to the composition of the shot.

The only thing about the shot that I'm not 100% sure about is the colour of the noodles, it seems as though it may be a tiny bit off, or perhaps I'm just not cooking mine right :)

I was just scrolling through all your challenge entries to pick a couple out to comment on and stopped the second I saw this.

I've walked down this very path a number of times looking for interesting things to photograph (I live literally 5 minutes walk from here on George St) and I have never come up with anything nearly as striking as this!

The lights are obviously the first thing that catch my attention being the brightest area of the shot, but it's the trees that really make it. I'm guessing you knew that judging by your title but I really felt I had to state it again!

I particularly like that you have made what would usually be the main feature (the lights and path) as almost a footnote here!

Beautiful color, clarity, and exposure. Could *maybe* use more reflected light from the right. Very nice concept.

Easily a top 5 contender. Very nicely lit. You must be grumbling about the dark corner on the bottom and top left. I wont knock off anything because of it :P. Great job.

Beautiful job. The slight mist gives it a nice soft feel.
